Fiddler resets UI layout customization each start
The attached screenshots show a customized UI layout and a broken one that is Fiddler shows me on each start of the program.

The program window doesn't remember its on-screen position as well: it's always shown in the left half of my only display.

Telerik Fiddler Web Debugger (v4.6.2.32002)
64-bit AMD64, VM: 59,0mb, WS: 92,0mb

One 30" display set at 2560x1600 at a standard dpi of 96. No window managers or theming systems. Just a normal custom Windows theme that I use for 5 years or so. Fiddler is the only app that exhibits this bug.

A temporary workaround is using nircmd to launch Fiddler:

nircmd exec hide C:\app\web\Fiddler\Fiddler.exe

And no, Default view doesn't preserve the layout customizations and window position.

This isn't a problem in the general case; it appears you're using some third-party window manager or theming system?

How many displays do you have? If Fiddler is set to View > Default Layout and restarted, are positions preserved?
